Ingredients

  • 12 sweet Hawaiian rolls
  • 1 lb. roasted turkey deli or leftover
  • 5 slices/4oz. sharp white cheddar cheese
  • 1.5 Tbsp melted butter (22g)
  • 2 tsp finely chopped parsley or 1 tsp dried
  • Cranberry sauce optional for serving
  • Fresh arugula optional for serving

Cranberry aioli:

  • 1/4 cup light mayo (60g)
  • 2 Tbsp cranberry sauce (30g)
  • 1 tsp dijon mustard
  • pinch of salt & cracked black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven broiler to low (or 400F).
  • Slice rolls lengthwise with a large serrated knife separating the tops from the bottoms. Place both cut-side up on a baking sheet and place in the oven. Broil for about a minute, until golden brown (they will brown quickly!) Remove from oven and reduce the temperature to 350F.
  • Combine the mayo, cranberry sauce, dijon mustard, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
  • Spread the cranberry aioli on the cut side of the top rolls. To the bottom rolls, add the turkey, cheese, and then the tops of the rolls.
  • Brush the melted butter all over the rolls and sprinkle with parsley.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Keep a close eye at the end and cover with foil if rolls are browning too quickly.
  • Enjoy these sliders as they are or open up and stuff with some cranberry sauce and arugula (so good!)

Notes

These sliders are best enjoyed fresh right out of the oven. 
If you do have leftover sliders, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for 1-2 days. I like to pop mine back in the air fryer or oven for a minutes to help the rolls crisp back up.
